Welcome
to the Artspace Summer Arts Program!
Artspace is happy to present our 20th summer of offering intensive-yet-fun,
project-oriented classes for youths
(rising 3rd - 10th graders), College
Prep Classes for Rising 9th graders and up, and workshops for
Adults (age 16 and up). The Artspace
Summer Arts Program provides a unique opportunity for students to
work directly with professional artists and gain quality experience
through hands-on activities.
You will discover some exciting *New
Classes* for Youths (Rising 3rd-10th grade)
such as Collage Creations with Eric McRay, and
Printing & Stamping with IlaSahai Prouty, along with
old favorites such as Face Up to It! with Mary Louise
Talley and Stained Glass Wall Mosaic with Paula MacLeod.
In addition, you will find some College Prep level classes as well
as Adult classes beginning at age 16.
On
the 20th Anniversary of the program I want to remind you about
the importance of The Summer Arts Program Scholarship
Fund. Based upon recommendations of area teachers,
each year fifty youths receive scholarships to fully cover
the expenses of attending Artspace for a full-day week-long
program. This year the Artspace staff personally donated $250
- the cost to send one child to the Summer Arts Program for
a full-day week-long program. I encourage you to consider
a contribution of any denomination to the Scholoarhsip Fund.
Every single penny of your tax-deductible contribution will
directly enrich the lives of talented youths who would otherwise
be unable to attend our program. |
Please note that we have two separate brochures – one advertising
our Youth Classes and one specifically
advertising our Adult Classes.
Be sure to peruse both – you are sure to find something of interest
for the whole family!

We will not be responsible for your child’s safety under
such circumstances. If your child is a

will sign your child out with the instructor in the classroom.
Please see the Youth Schedule for pickup times. There
is a $5 late fee charge for each 5 minutes after the designated

in dismissal from the program with no refund. If your child
must stay past 4pm, please enroll in the After Hours Program
(more info below).
This is a
relaxed but fun time, from 4:00pm – 5:30pm daily, which
includes art activities and more. There is an additional fee
of $25 per student for the week ($20 members). After Hours students
will be signed out with the instructor.
